Mr. Hojo can't clean up after himself.
For someone who's lived alone for so long, he's incapable of housework. He can't cook and he's bad at tidying up.
I'm more like his caretaker than his assistant.
He loses things all the time, and whenever he doesn't have a book he needs, he blows up. He usually ends up asking Ms. Kurosawa for help.
One time when I was trying to sort all his books, there was one I couldn't find anywhere. It's like it just disappeared.
Ms. Kurosawa found it with her shadow reading. She went into his room on her own, then came back out a little while later with the missing book.
She just smiled and said something about making the invisible visible. What is this shadow reading business, anyway?
That reminds me of one time... I was tidying up and I came across something I'd never seen before.
It was like Ms. Kurosawa said: the invisible became visible.
It was kept inside an old box. I don't even know what it was.
I put it aside to sort out later on, but when I went to take a proper look, it had vanished.
It must have gone invisible again.

先生は片付けられない人だ。
一人暮らしが長いとは思えないほど家事が
できない。
料理もできないし、掃除も苦手。
作家助手とはいっても、ほとんど身の回りの
ことばかり。
先生は探すのが苦手な人だ。
よく、モノをなくす。
あの本がないと大騒ぎするたびに、結局
黒澤さんに依頼している。
私も増え続ける本をきちんと整理している
つもりだが、部屋から出したわけではないのに
本当に見つからない。
まるで消えてしまったかのようだ。
影見を頼むと、黒澤さんは一人で部屋に
入り、しばらくして先生が探していた本を
持って出てくる。
「見えなくなっていたもの」を見えるようにした
と黒澤さんは笑って言うが、影見は本当に
不思議だ。
私も一度、不思議な体験をしたことがある。
部屋を整理していたら、これまで見たことが
なかったものが出てきたのだ。
密花はんの言っていた「見えなくなっていた
もの」だったのだろうか。
古い箱に入れられていたもの。
あれは、何だったんだろう？
整理しようと思って置いていたら、
いつの間にか消えてしまった。
また「見えなくなってしまった」のだろうか。
